Blush Guide: According To Skin Tone & Skin Type
Just like any other makeup product, there is no "one shade & one formulation suits all". The colour and formula of your blush need to compliment your skin tone and your skin type to deliver the best results.
Picking The Right Blush According To Your Skin Tone
When we think of blush, a pink-red colour comes to mind and more often than not, we blindly purchase that colour without keeping our skin tone in mind. That's where we go wrong, though. A red-pink blush is not a universal shade. The purpose of applying blush is to make your skin look healthy and you can achieve that with a blush that works well with your skin tone. So, let's find the right blush shade for you according to your skin tone!
Light Skin Complexion
It can be easy to go overboard with blush when it comes to light skin. Subtle shades like baby pink and soft peach add life to light skin without looking over the top.

Medium skin tones tend to tan easily. Spicy shades like rose and coral will add a glow to medium skin tones while brightening up the complexion at the same time.

Deep skin is rich in colour and needs intense shades when it comes to blush. Shades like crimson and berry add just the right amount of colour and enhance the features.

Dry Skin
Dry skin needs a blush formulation that is hydrating. Cream blushes are great for dry skin as they don't cling to dry patches and give a dewy look.

Oily Skin
Oily skin works great with blush formulations that soak up excess oil. Powder blushes are amazing for oily skin as they are mattifying and look fresh.

Combination Skin
Combination skin requires something that isn't too dewy and isn't too matte. Liquid blushes are a saviour for combination skin due to their balanced formulation.
